Feral Feast is a one-day wild food event in Montana bringing together curious beginners, foragers, hunters, chefs, educators, and food lovers for a full day of learning, tasting, and reconnecting with food at its source.<\/div>\n
On Saturday, August 22, 2026, we\u2019ll gather at North Bridger Bison Ranch<\/strong> near Bozeman, Montana for a community event built around wild food, traditional foodways, and a deeper connection to the land.<\/div>\n
This isn\u2019t your average food festival.<\/div>\n
Feral Feast is for people who want to understand where real food comes from, learn practical skills, taste wild ingredients, meet others who care about resilient local food systems, and spend the day surrounded by Montana sky, fire, story, and good company.<\/div>\n
Throughout the day, attendees can expect:<\/div>\n
Educational sessions with foragers, chefs, hunters, and wild food educators<\/div>\n
Wild food tastings and chef-led demonstrations<\/div>\n
Hands-on learning around foraging, wild game, preservation, and traditional food skills<\/div>\n
Vendors, brands, and makers connected to food, land, and outdoor living<\/div>\n
Community conversations around what it means to eat closer to place<\/div>\n
A full day celebrating food that is raw, real, rooted, and alive with story<\/div>\n
Whether you\u2019re an experienced forager, a hunter, a homesteader, a chef, or someone who simply wants to feel more connected to the food on your plate, Feral Feast is a place to learn, taste, ask questions, and be part of a growing wild food community.<\/div>\n
This is about more than food.<\/div>\n
It\u2019s about remembering that before grocery aisles, there was the hunt, the harvest, the fire, the season, and the people gathered around it.<\/div>\n
Join us for Feral Feast.<\/div>\n
Date: Saturday, August 22, 2026

\nLocation: North Bridger Bison Ranch, Wilsall, Montana<\/div>\n
